Lisandro is yet to play any type of competitive football this season, but United are happy for him to undergo a training stint with his Argentina teammates.

He will join Scaloni's squad for a training camp in Europe to continue building up fitness.

Before last month's draw at Nottingham Forest, United manager Ruben Amorim offered an update on Lisandro's recovery: "He wants to go to this one (Forest), he isn't going to this one. He's going to need time. He has started training with us, but we had to change some things in his exercises, so slowly he is going to get better.  

"It's really good. He gives use that edge in every training session, that is also really good for us. The rest of the guys we have one day. I don't know about Harry Maguire, the rest are fit."
